Location

A tavern(?) at Międzybrodzkie Lake.

According to Google Maps, today's coordinates fall in the grassy yard of a private-owned guesthouse/tavern/mooring at the shore of Międzybrodzkie Lake within the limits of Międzybrodzie Bialskie village. It looks like a nice place.

Participants

Malgond
his family.

Plans

Go there by car, have a nice afternoon at the lake and maybe a snack at the tavern (if it turns out any good).

Expedition

Sadly, this expedition was marked by failures and disappointments. Nevertheless, no failure prevents a dedicated geohasher from having a nice adventure even if it turns out not quite like planned.

Since it was Saturday, I originally planned to arrive there by hash o'clock to boost my pathetic centurion achievement just a little bit. I intended to set out at 2 p.m. to get there before 4 p.m. - but you know how it goes with kids. In the end we set out at a quarter to four. Our planned route led us south along the dual-carriage road towards Zakopane, then west along route 52 towards Bielsko-Biała, the "capital" of the graticule. We've passed the towns of Kalwaria Zebrzydowska, Wadowice and Andrychów and turned south towards Porąbka and Międzybrodzie Bialskie, our destination.

On the route 7 near Mogilany.
The road through the hills.
Approaching Kalwaria Zebrzydowska. Bernardines Monastery on the hill.
The hills turned into mountains.
Crossing Soła river on a narrow one-lane bridge.
The dam of the Międzybrodzkie Lake.
The dam close-up.
High-voltage pylons on the side of the Żar Mountain...
...leading to the pumped-storage hydroelectric plant.
Our destination.
